In my experience, the initial submission process was frustrating. It took a week before I could ship the application. I wish they had a table of document categories for each OCI type and listed all the acceptable documents. The different numbers (temporary, web, receipt and oci) are bit confusing. This will help you to be prepared before starting the online application. It took a while to reduce the size of the scanned images and documents to upload. It is expected you have good knowledge on using computer applications, scanners and file size. If you are not that computer savvy, please get help from some one who can help you with that. Use a low quality scanner or change the setting to low quality when you scan the documents to fit to the file size requirements. If in doubt which document to upload or send, call the customer support number. They are very helpful, but be patient with them (just be nice and ask for the help you need). This is not an optimal process, but an ok process. I am amazed how fast they processed mine (based on my experience). You are doing most of the work; the outsourced company and govt are making sure the documents are correct. IMO lot of money goes for shipping, but is worth for the convenience from not driving to the city during work hours and paying for the parking. I strongly suggest choosing the prepaid shipping option.
Good luck to others submitting the OCI application.

Minor fresh OCI Application - San Francisco
I shipped package to CKGS on 30-Dec. Because of holidays, package was delivered on 3-Jan.
Online status is received since 3-Jan and has not changed since. Its almost a week now.
I called CKGS twice already and they have escalated case and they were supposed to reply in 24 to 48 hours.
Has anyone faced same issue with shipping option? What can be done?

OCI Card not received
I have applied for my son's OCI Card (New applicant) on Oct 26th. In the GOI website it is showing that the card is processed and despatched from New Delhi on 12th Dec. But after that in the GOI website there is no update. I am checking with the CKGS on daily basis, but they have a common response "will check with consulate".
Can anyone tell me what need to done now?

New OCI Washinton DC
Hi,
I sent my daughter OCI on Oct 24th to Washington, DC and the acknowledgement date is OCT 31st on Passport OCI status website. It is under process from that time. It is more than 2months now and we are planning to go to India before Jan 14th.
Did anyone applied after Oct 24th and got their OCI card? Just wanted to know so that atleast I can know if something is wrong or not. Thanks.

OCI card for minor ....
A new problem has cropped up. CKGS requires additional document after submitting all documents on the check list. The documents required are copies of both parents renunciation certificates. While
mother's renunciation certificate is available, Fathers renunciation certificate is not available since he has got PIO card obtained long back. Will have to check if PIO card and cancelled Indian Passport would suffice!!!!
